The V40 Deluxe is the first amp in their new Victory heritage series and sees the popular V40 head evolve into a mid-sized combo amp.

V40 Deluxe is a 2 x 6L6-powered all-valve amp for classic American cleans through to ’60s British drive, all from one versatile channel. It also has tube driven Tremolo and Reverb with tone and level controls so that you can set how dark or bright your spring reverb sound is.

With the widebody cab and Celestion G12H-75 speaker you can expect a fat and full-bodied clean sound from this amp providing the perfect platform to run all of your pedals. With a low and high power mode so you can take the amp from lounge to studio to stage without any troubles.

Premier Guitar Review

Premier Guitar gave the V40 Deluxe a rave review in August 2017. Here are some excerpts of what they thought about the amp:

The V40 also evokes Fender-inspired Matchless amps in its superb workmanship, surgical tone controls, and ability to maintain punch and definition at all gain settings.

The V40 Deluxe captures the essence of mid-sized Fender blackface amps, but with greater range and definition. And thanks to its expanded tone controls, it evokes early Marshalls equally well. Its tremolo and reverb tones are glorious, and the amp is packed with player-friendly extras.

Here’s what Victory say about the V40 Deluxe

V40 Deluxe is evolved from our award-winning Compact Series V40 The Duchess head. (Guitarist Magazine Gear Of The Year 2015 / The Guitar Magazine Gear Of The Year 2015.)

V40 Deluxe is a 2 x 6L6-powered all-valve amp for classic American cleans through to ’60s British drive, all from one versatile channel. It has high- and low-power modes, a hardbypassable series effects loop, plus footswitchable valve-driven tremolo and spring reverb. The reverb has controls for level and tone, enabling you to have a relatively darker or brighter tone to the reverb. V40 Deluxe comes in two formats: a 1 x 12 widebody combo with Celestion G12H-75 Creamback speaker, and also a head in a traditional wooden sleeve.

The V40 Deluxe is part of the Victory Heritage Series.

The Important stuff

1×12 — A 1×12 combo or cabinet offers the ideal middle ground between portability and power. With a single 12-inch speaker, it delivers a full, rounded tone that captures plenty of low-end warmth without being too heavy to carry. Many guitarists consider the 1×12 the most versatile setup — compact enough for home or studio use, yet capable of handling small gigs with ease. It’s the classic choice for players who want authentic amp feel and projection without the bulk of larger rigs.. Combo — A combo amplifier combines the amp head and speaker cabinet into one convenient, self-contained unit, making it a favourite for players who want great tone without extra setup. Compact and portable, combos come in all sizes and power levels, from small practice amps to stage-ready tube beasts. They deliver everything from sparkling cleans to rich overdrive, often with built-in effects and tone-shaping controls. Perfect for rehearsals, recording, or gigs, a good combo amp gives you the full sound and feel of a complete rig in one easy-to-carry package.. Deluxe. Guitar Amps and Cabs — Guitar amps and cabs are at the heart of your tone, shaping everything from crisp clean sounds to heavy distortion. Combo amps combine the speaker and amplifier in one portable unit, ideal for rehearsals and small gigs, while separate amp heads and cabinets offer more power and flexibility for stage use. Valve amps deliver classic warmth and dynamic response, while solid-state and modelling amps provide reliable performance and a wide range of tones. Guitar cabinets, from compact 1x12s to full 4×12 stacks, influence projection and character, so matching the right amp and cab setup is key to getting your perfect sound..
